so what I did is to fabricate a bushing made of alloy bar ends...

I bought this generic shocks for a few hundred bucks and after a couple of months on my tommy, the bushing get busted... so Iwent to my machinist to fix it with alloy bushing.. Now it performs better than my stock mono shock...

One more thing, this shock is a bit bigger in height and radius of the coil springs, so I guess its more stiffer than its original counterpart...

these shocks were used by some modifier in converting their dual shocks into monoshock, so this type are universal and doesnt have a brand name, you"ll just have to ask for 200mm monoshock...(edited from230 mm)

squeaking sound may or may not indicate a busted shocks...and bushing of the stock shock is very durable..
you have busted shocks if you have the ff: oil is leaking from the shocks;
bumpy ride even on asphalt pavement;
can be pushed down using slight force( to test this double stand and
push down from the grab handle...
